Statement of Intent

Proxy (prev. Boardroom) is a team that consists of DAO governance professionals. We have experience building and servicing governance systems for some of the largest DAOs in the space including Lido and Moonwell. Our team has been in the space since its early days and we’ve developed a comprehensive understanding of governance needs across diverse sectors, including DeFi, staking, and L2 scaling, among others. We aim to provide Uniswap with strategic guidance and data-driven insights that enable sound decision-making.

Core Values

  • Commitment to Transparency: We emphasize open communication and will provide the community with clear updates on our rationale for each governance action.
  • Data-Driven Decision Making: We bring a robust data-centric approach to our role, drawing insights from our experience with governance metrics to evaluate proposals thoroughly and responsibly.
  • Experimentation: We shouldn’t be afraid of trying new things in governance. Sticking to the same old processes because “that’s how it’s always been” can hold a project back. We value approaching governance decisions with a fresh perspective and offering new ideas when we can.

Disclosures/Conflicts of Interest

We are actively involved as a delegate and governance provider for several other DAOs, including ZKsync, Morpho, ParaSwap, Scroll, and Moonwell. We are committed to disclosing potential conflicts of interest arising during our engagement with Uniswap governance.

Proposal: Uniswap Unleashed

Vote: For

Rationale: The four strategic priorities defined in the proposal (scaling network supply and demand, activating revenue, and onboarding core contributors) all contribute to the long-term sustainability of the Uniswap ecosystem. We appreciate the adjustments that were made over the past month based on feedback in the forums. There was some dissent in the forums surrounding the requested budget for grants far surpassing the budget for operations. However, we view this as a sign of operational efficiency rather than a negative. The forum discussion on this topic highlighted that (1) the Uniswap Foundation needs to be funded and (2) there needs to exist strong checks to make sure the allocated funding is being used productively. As seen with the 2024 Community Impact Report, we believe the Foundation will uphold the latter aspect.

Proposal: [Temp Check] Saga Uniswap v3 Liquidity Incentives

Vote: Abstain

Rationale: While we appreciate the efforts of Saga to bootstrap liquidity incentives, we believe it would be smarter for the DAO to be more conservative with its runway for the time being. The Liquidity Integration Layer and the DEX are now only a few weeks old. We’d ideally like to see a longer protocol age and greater than ~38K txs (at the time of writing) on the SagaEVM explorer.

Proposal: Unichain and Uniswap v4 Liquidity Incentives

Vote: For

Rationale: We did not see any significant issues with the proposal. Gauntlet has a strong track record and they have shown an ability to adjust incentives based on performance metrics. It will be important to not only attract an initial cohort of liquidity providers and users, but also to retain them.
